Colour schemes can be REALLY inspiring. Sometimes an entire design I make just starts with a single colour scheme. I fall in love with it, I get inspired, and the whole design is focused around it from the beginning. So I thought I’d share a few of my favourite colour schemes at the moment. 
Leaf Palette
Zinnias Hues
Nature Tones
Autumn Dew
This is actually the colour scheme that inspired the Eliza theme. I didn’t end up using all the colours and I did adjust them a little, but the entire theme started when I saw this colour scheme!
Flora Tones
Feathered Hues
Okay I saved the best for last (sort of… I mean, it was in the header). I am ADDICTED to this colour scheme right now. I don’t quite know how to use it, but I have this incredibly strong obsession with it, and I’m afraid it won’t end until I design SOMETHING around it. Now I just need to put the pieces together…
Loving Feathered Hues (and the first one a wee bit too), could totally see post categories using different colours. Urgh, I wish I had more freedom with my blog, but where to start gives me a headache!
Leaf Palette, Flora Tones and Autumn Dew look so… soothing.
My blog design is based on the Bubble Gum palette. Such happy colors to me
Oh my, so many delicious colours, all so beautiful, I want them all, but have been over to pin the ones I love the most.
Despite how my blog looks, these are literally my favorite color schemes. I love toned down colors.
I love the Featured Hues color scheme. It’s so beautiful. I’m sure you’ll figure out a way to use the colors.
Whoops, I mean Feathered Hues.
I love a good colour palette! <3 Colors are always the first thing I decide on when I do designs- my starting point. I absolutely love the flora one! I usually prefer pastel colors.
Nature tones and Autumn Dew are my two faves.
I adore color schemes that are soft and gentle like ‘Autumn Dew’.
‘Feathered Hues’ is too colorful for my personal taste. But a great catching website can be designed around it. Can’t wait to see the result.
Ahh. Now I’m in love with this site!!
I love all of these colors. They are very inspiring.
I’ll have to try working with some of them.
What a beautiful post! Really inspiring! Especially since I am hoping to pick a new color scheme for my blog soon! (right now it doesn’t have much of a “theme” necessarily :))
Thanks for sharing!!

If I weren’t so happy with my color scheme right now, I would totally change to the Autumn Dew one! The last one is too bright for me, but I can see the appeal
I love love love color schemes and mood boards! My favorite of these is probably autumn dew. I also really like the ones that use different textures like foil.
My favorite part of (fashion) design school was putting together a color scheme.
Have you checked out Salted Ink? She does blog branding and has the prettiest mood boards and color schemes. http://saltedink.com/blog/
Flora Tones and Autumn Dew are my fave! I think it’s because of the purple tones hehe. I love everything about purple/violet/lavender.
Love autumn dew and leaf palette! In general, I like any color scheme that subdues bright colors with either greys or browns. I definitely tend towards simple schemes with a bright color, a grey, and white. I think 3 of my blogs have that combo lol. I have been wanting to add another brighter accent color to my book blog though.
I’m loving Feathered Hues so much. Such a fun colour combo.
Kinda makes me want to rethink my whole colour scheme.
Color schemes are so much fun to look at! Thanks for sharing the site! I might use one of the palettes for my next newspaper portfolio.
ColourLovers is also a great resource for picking a scheme.
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check that out!
